Luke's Party was awesome! I saw a ton of famous faces there. I'll make a post on that when I get back, but until then, goodbye. It's bit unfortunate that I'll be missing the ravenwood ball, but oh well. See you in two weeks!

Ok guys, I made a post on central that will never be published. Why won't it be published? Well, here, read it....

Chances are, this post will never be published. Chances are, that even if it is published, it will be deleted immediately. Chances are, the people will never read this. Why? Because Jester is abusing his power. Let me direct you to the post that caught my attention....
http://eviltheurgists.blogspot.com/2011/06/in-regards-to-my-ban-on-wizard101.html
There, The Evil Theurgist says....
"So in case you did not know I was just recently banned from Wizard101 Central do to the fact that I removed the Reagent maps from Central. The maps were made by me so therefore I would have every right to remove them. The reason behind this is that 1. it is a lot harder to upload and maintain the maps through Central, which is one of the reasons I was so discouraged to update them in the first place. 2. The maps had not been updated in months. When I approached Jester telling him that I would be removing them I also asked for him to remove all of my gold and thanks accumulated from that thread as the content is no longer there so no need for credit when the thread does not exist. I also said to Jester and I am also going to say to you this is not an act of greed to get views. I also did not proved a link back to my site whatsoever. The ban seems to be permanent and the reason being under "Are you even kidding me, you are going to remove content?" And that's the end of it."

He was banned for removing his work.
Recently, he made another post.
http://eviltheurgists.blogspot.com/2011/06/reagent-mapping-update-and-other-drama.html
There, he says that Jester insulted him, and spread lies, stealing his work and claiming it as his own!
I don't know about you guys, but I think this is horrible.
So go ahead Jester, delete this post, ban me from central. I don't care. I'm done with central. I'm done with you.

-Malorn Ghostrider

Stand up for the evil theurgist! It was wrong that Jester banned him. I urge you all to make similar posts on central if you can. If you want, go ahead and copy and paste this. Jester can not get away with doing stuff like this. That post won't be published because Jester is a horrible dictator. He will cover it up, pretend this never happened, anything to keep his subjects in line. Now go out there and protest.

Before I start talking about my latest house, I'd just like to remind the 2nd (Vanessa Emeraldglade) and 3rd (Aaron Starheart) place winners of the contest that we need to find a time and place to meet so that you can receive your cards.

Ok, The Drake Caves. This house is going to be a Dragonspyre themed house. I've got a lot of ideas for it, here are just a few.

I've already bought the house, the large dragonspyre.

Right when I got it, I experimented with making bottomless pits, both inside,

and outside.

There's one part of the house that I wanted to hang these dragon busts up. Unfortunately, they wouldn't fit where I wanted them to. Then I had a great idea. First, you need two small carpets, like the small blue trim rug I have here.

So put that carpet down, then put the other small carpet down behind it.

The carpet in the front I will call carpet 1, and the one behind that is carpet 2. Move carpet two, directly in front of the dragon bust. This will mean that carpet 1 is directly under it. Then, simply move carpet one wherever you want!

See? Floating dragon busts wherever you please! This trick works with any wall hanging that sticks out a bit.

This trick of using two carpets to accomplish something is also very helpful when dealing with using carpet tricks on housing items that can only be placed outside.

I'll have more on the drake caves later.

Oh, and that reminds me. "Later" means two weeks, as I am going on vacation. The timing really couldn't be worse, I'll be missing both Luke Goldhorn's party, and Ravenwood ball. UPDATE: Just realized Luke's party is today, not tomorrow. I should be able to make it. I also probably won't be able to blog much. Oh well, Happy House Decorating!

The party was awesome, we got a ton of people, including the owners of blogs such as....
Fin and Quinn
The Diviners Lane
A Pyromancer's Say
mywizard101site
The Elementalists
The Heroic Pyromancer
Epic Thaumaturge
and more!

After the party was over, I headed over to Blaze Shadowhorn's house (Owner of mywizard101 site), and had a post party dance party with Blaze, Fin and Quinn, Amber Rosepetal, and Bailey Skystaff.

And of course, a bit of nighttime mode kicked in, making it very difficult for me to see. I had to use "Little Malorn" the port bus to walk around.

Ok, on to the next part. The dorm competition was a bit confusing. For third place there was a tie. So what I am going to do is put a poll up voting for the winners of 3rd place.

THIRD PLACE Aaron Starheart's "Tranquil Mooshu" Dorm

Competing against that is Mark Stormhunter's "Not so Tranquil Mooshu" Dorm

UPDATE after looking through my screenshots, I remembered another contestant that I had forgotten, I will add her to the third place section.

Caitlin Daisyglade's "Forgotten Kingdorm"

SECOND PLACE WINNER IS VANESSA EMERALDGLADE

FIRST PLACE WINNER IS TRAVIS TITANTHIEF

I would give you guys pictures of their dorms, but my computer is kind of acting up, and the pictures are getting all weird. The winners will have to find a time and place to meet up with me for the prize.

Wednesday, June 15, 2011

The party is now! Right now I'm waiting while my slow computer tries to load up both my accounts (One being my port bus). Come on over to Bartelby (in Ravenwood) in Wraith Realm, Area 1, for some fun and card prizes!

Each of the level 58 Pets do some strange things when you leave them sitting for a long period of time. Some of these things that they do happen so fast it's hard to take a screen shot. I've been collecting pictures of these unusual acts for a while, here are just a few pictures of them.

1.Kraken Sneeze
This was the first one that I noticed, and it was very hard to get a good screenshot of this.

And....

ATCHOO!

2. Scarecrow Head Roll

Blue one is doing it here.

The purple on is doing it in this picture. They roll their heads across their shoulders, then throw it into the air, and catch it again.

3.Humongofrog Sleep

The Humongofrog gets tired easily, and can be seen snoring.

4.Forest Lord Search

The forest lord's weird thing isn't all that weird. He just kind of flails around, looking over each shoulder for something.

5.Wyvern Spin

As you can tell in the picture, the Ice Wyvern can be found spinning around in circles.

6.Phoenix Soar

Here is the normal phoenix, flapping it's wings. Occasionally though, it can be seen doing this....

Soaring.

7.Judgement Float

This example can be shown in this heroic pose that was taken during my last Nastrond run. The Judgement sometimes levitates her scale in front of her.

Remember that you can still turn in your contest entries until the party starts, I will be announcing the winners at the party, as well as in tomorrow's post. Also at the party, I have a scavenger hunt that I mentioned yesterday. The prize for that is 55 Tower Shield treasure cards. I may not be able to give crowns, but I give a pretty decent amount of cards. Haha, while at the bazaar I realized that my limit for treasure cards is 500. I may have a problem with that when I'm giving you guys your cards (150,000 gold worth of treasure cards may not fit).

Remember that the party is todayat Eastern Time: 3:00 PM, Central Time: 2:00 PM, Pacific Time: 12:00 PM. My port bus will be in front of Bartelby in Wraith Realm, Area 1.

I hope to see you there!

-Malorn

P.S. If you guys liked this post on the pet's strange habits, please comment, and I may make another post on their dancing styles.

Tuesday, June 14, 2011

Today is your last day to turn in your pictures of dorms for the contest. I will accept them before the party tomorrow (that would be before Eastern Time: 3:00 PM, Central Time: 2:00 PM, Pacific Time: 12:00 PM), but I would really prefer that I get those in today. I haven't received very many entries yet, so please send those in as soon as possible. Remember that you can just send those pictures to malornghostrider@gmail.com, or just send a message containing the pictures to malorn ghostrider on wizard101 central.

I don't really have a lot to say on this post, so it may be pretty short. I've got the 150,000 prize money for the contest, but I may save up a little extra for a scavenger hunt contest that will take place at the party. There are six harvest pumpkins hidden around my house, three inside, three outside. First person to find those will win a small treasure card prize.

Hmmm.... What else....

....

Well it appears that I can't find anything else to post about today. Please enjoy this video.

UPDATE I'd also like to mention that I recently got a new counter showing our page views (it's the one that says page views (accurate)). The other one only showed the page views starting at the date it was added. As it turns out, we are over 11,000 page views, so the party and contest will also be in honor of hitting 10,000 page views.

Monday, June 13, 2011

Wow, I have lots of stuff to discuss. Where should I start? Well first, I got a chat box to make it easier for you guys to throw in your ideas. Apparently the housing discussion post has had 103 views, but only four comments. This new way makes it much easier to voice your ideas and opinions. Just go to the New House Ideas tab and scroll to the very bottom.

I'd like to remind you guys that the party is on Wednesday June 15, at Eastern Time: 3:00 PM, Central Time: 2:00 PM, Pacific Time: 12:00 PM. My port bus will be in front of Bartelby in Wraith Realm, Area 1.

Speaking of the contest, I haven't had a lot of time to farm for money, but I still managed to raise 150,000. While sitting at the bazaar, I realized how much that is. That's enough to buy 300 gargantuan treasure cards, at 500 gold each. If you want to buy cheaper cards, you could easily get over a thousand. Remember of course that the winnings will be split, 50% to 1st place, 30% to second place, and 20% to third place.

I've seen lots of people saying they will enter, but so far only one person has sent in pictures. No doubt you're still working on your dorms, trying to make them perfect, but remember that the contest closes on Wednesday. Remember that you can send the pics to me either by email (send to malornghostrider@gmail.com) or on wizard101 central (name is malorn ghostrider).

The past few days I've been trying so many different methods of getting money. I tried Waterworks near the beginning of the contest, and hated it (due to the fact that it is so hard, and gives bad loot), I fought people on the streets, and I did Nastrond a few times. I will continue doing Nastrond and fighting Wintertusk street ravens until later tomorrow.

Sunday, June 12, 2011

Today I did Nastrond. No, I didn't have the quest (I haven't even finished Grizzleheim yet), I just did it for the money.

Here we are, just inside of the entrance of Nastrond.

These Frost Trolls were pretty funny, look at their blond sideburns.

They also did a pretty funny move when you defeated them.

Most of the battles were finished when Travis Titanthief pulled out his Humongofrog card.

Equipped with Gargantuan, and three or four blades, the results are pretty powerful.

After three different boss fights, and multiple battles against Viking Skeletons (All defeated easily thanks to Travis's Humongofrog) we came to Jotungaard (Spelled wrong?).

Unfortunately, my computer froze up and shut down when I took this picture. I managed to start it back up and load Wizard101 back up again. For some reason, even though I had logged out, I didn't leave the dungeon. So I simply walked over and joined the fight.

When I got there, Sudri had already fallen, and Travis took out Austri with his humongofrog just a few turns after I joined the fight.

I managed to kill Vestri with a gargantuan'd pirate.

Nordri wasn't too happy about that.

One more to go.

Since he was death, and I forgot to put in converts, I just hit Nordri with a bunch of feints and curses. I had put down my third feint, when everyone else decided to hit him with the combined force of a humongofrog (with all the blades), Efreet, and Dragon.

Everwinter has been averted.

I also took Kol's throne from him. Whatever happened to him? He was here just before our fight. You'd think that after defeating the giant bros you would have to fight him. Oh well, maybe he fell into the little fire ring around the throne.

And I got a nice 30,000 gold from it. That means that the winner of the contest gets 50,000 gold worth of treasure cards, as of today. Remember that I still have two days to farm for gold.

And I'd like to remind you all that the party ison Wednesday June 15, at Eastern Time: 3:00 PM, Central Time: 2:00 PM, Pacific Time: 12:00 PM. My port bus will be in front of Bartelby in Wraith Realm, Area 1.

First off, I'd just like to mention that the harvest festival page is out, so check that out. Also, I'd like to show a few other cool stuff. First, I unlocked Hrundle Fjord with crowns. No, I don't have the questline, but I've just been farming the street guys, getting more money than Stormriven, in much quicker battles. I now have over 70,000 gold. All to give to the winners of the Dorm Contest. You might want to think about entering now. While fighting, I noticed two things. One, when you cast a spell with the new dragon sword, you do a backflip. Here's a picture of a wizard in the process of casting a spell.

First the charmer's flute, now this? KI is getting more creative.

Also, the Scarecrow has a changed animation. After attacking enemies, he too does a backflip into the ground. This picture was taken a bit late, so you can only see the dirt flying.

Oh, and to give you proof that I have tons of money ready for the contest, here's this picture.

50,000 of it I earned just today. I still have until Wednesday to earn money. If you want cards worth 50,000+ gold, you may want to think about joining.

I also got a nice pet with it, the Rowdy Wildclaw, who gives a nice plague card.

I won them in a contest (The host has asked me not to tell who I won them from because he wants to see some of the other entries before closing the contest). Now I would use them to unlock Wintertusk, but I haven't finished Grizzleheim yet. So then I'd have to unlock that left, and I'd only have enough crowns to play in Hrundle Fjord. So I decided instead to use the crowns on retraining my training points, buying some crowns stuff, and unlocking Crab Alley. With Crab Alley I'd be able to get Wintertusk equivalent gold through the Waterworks, and it would only cost 750 crowns. I think that's a good deal.

I haven't gotten any dorm contest entries yet, but keep working on them, the contest will be open until Wednesday (Which let meremind youis the same day as the party).

Let's see, what else....

We now have 32 followers, thanks to our newest follower, Kevin Battleblood. Remember to keep voting on that poll, and putting ideas on the discussion post. Remember that I do need a new house after the Harvest Festival. Oh, and that reminds me, I better get online and take some pictures of that to put on the blog.

That's all for now, Happy House (Dorm for those of you in the contest) Decorating!
